The end of Folksy September Stars is almost over, although we will be back under another wonderful 'October' listing name. It has been a very busy and productive month, and while I didn't manage to list everyday, I have still managed to add new jewellery and accessories, some of which I have included below! This includes Alice In Wonderland, Vintage & Victorian Inspired jewellery and more of my fairytale range!

I am also happy to announce that I have reached 50 sales in my Folksy shop and shall be celebrating with you all very soon, with a new giveaway :-)

Now I'm going to share some of my favourite designs from the 'September Stars'. Todays choices are a wide and varied selection ranging from a stunning selection of handmade jewellery and accessories!

As someone who rarely wins anything, I have recently been very lucky and won some great prizes, I wanted to blog about!

These are the goodies that have arrived in my mailbox and I wanted to share them with you, and also say thank you to the generous prize givers!

Cosmetic Bag Set from Dizzy Little Kingdom

One of the first giveaways I won was held by Killera (on twitter), on her wonderful blog Dizzy Little Kingdom! It was a nice surprise when I saw her tweet with the runner up winner announcement. I received a beautiful matching cosmetic bag set, and the clutch purse has an adorable aged bronze art nouveau button :-)

Swag & Book from Wicked Readings By Tawania

I was also lucky enough to win some swag and a book of my choice from Tawania, who hosts a fab blog called Wicked Readings By Tawania, which is all about her love of paranormal romance books and includes reviews, giveaways, recipes and more! I chose Avalan Revisted by O.M. Grey, as I've been wanting to read this book for ages! Tawania was so sweet and filled my bag with extra swag, which I am going to put to good use very soon!

Handmade Gothic Pendant By Angel Elements

The last prize I wanted to share with you today is this pendant by Angel Elements. I won the giveaway on twitter, and the prize was to choose any pendant from her Etsy shop which specialises in handmade and custom designed jewellery. I chose this gothic styled heart and key design! The pics do not do this pendant justice ' it's so sleek and shiny!

Vintage styled jewellery and the Victorian era has always been a favourite of mine when seeking inspiration for making jewellery. It often brings to mind high fashion, opulant and indulgent styles and romanticism! I have found great delight in browsing through Folksy for some fabulous finds, including some of my own, which take their inspiration from Vintage or Victorian Glamour!

I love making jewellery and accessories, but if I had more time, another hobby or passion I could see myself doing, aside from learning the piano, would be knitting! ________________________________________________________________

These 3 fab matching accessories in Forest Sea Green are handmade by NOfkantsCurios

As someone who is sensitive to the cold and suffers from Raynaud's Syndrome, it was probably inevitable that I would develop an obsession with staying warm and keeping myself wrapped up in the winter, in knitted accessories, ranging from hats, gloves, scarves and thermal vests etc! I have many favourites in all kinds of styles, colours and materials, but I still treat myself to some new winter accessories each year!

I love the softness of wool, the mixtures created by different blends and the feeling of comfort! My favourite colours are usually chocolate, warm mocha, greys and deep olive greens, but I also have a passion for red, and can be easily persuaded by other colours and mixes that catch my eye!
